MISTAKEN IDENTITY.

A curious and very marked case of mis-
taken identity has occurred here. Thomas
Shillcox, an old resident of the Seventh
ward, left his home few weeks since to
visit his son at Kaukauna. Last We'd
nesday the news became current through
cut the city that Mr.. Shillcox had been
seen the day previous in the vicinity of
his home, acting in strange aud dazed
condition bordering on insanity. Four
or five persons, several of them Mr.. Shill-
cox's neighbors, testified il the most
positive manner of not only seeing
him face to face, but of having spoken to
him, and even went so far as to report the
conversation that passed. Intelligence of
this kind having reached his family, it
may we'll be imagined what effect such
news might have upon them, and their
grief and prostration in consequence were
to be expected. But their feelings of
painful suspense and anxiety were re-
moved next day, when the joyful news
was received that MI. Shillcox was safe and
sound at Kaukauna with his son and had
not been away from there at all. The
solution to this singular affair goes to
show that either Mr.. Shillcox has strik-
ing "double" lowering about in his neigh
borhood, or some people have very mis-
taken idea of who they see, and the moral
follows, that under such circumstances
you ought to be absolutely certain OF
your man before asserting positively that
you have seen and conversed with him.

PHI. HEINRlcH'S COMPANY.

The hum of the machinery in the
shops of the Phi. Heinrichs company is
pleasant to the ear, and the vim and
energy displayed all over the establish
ment indicate that it is running on asuc-
cessful basis. About forty different ar
ticles are made by the Phi. Heinrichs
company, and it is expected to increase
the variety as the demand will warrant
it. The number of workmen employed
at present is forty-one, and the amount
paid for labor monthly is some s., 100.
The company is adding to its storage
capacity by the erection of new ware
house building, and other improvements
are going forward, demanded by an in
crease in the volume of business. What
Watertown needs is several more estab-
lishnents like the Phi. Heinrichs COM
pany.

THE CODY CASE.

In the DR.. James Cody case before the
Dane county circuit court at Madison
last Wednesday, the question was upon
the summons of Judge Stewart to show
cause why guardian should be appoint
ed By the consent of all parties and
without prejudice to the right of the
counsel of DR.. Cody, A. L. Sanborn, of
Madison, was appointed guardian adj
litem.
In the case of DR.. Cody against The
resa Cody and Daniel Jones, to recover

Cleveland visit that city. Chicago, Off

withstand these Invitations especially as
they are but indications of the general in

when President and Mrs. Cleveland get
